The Manufacturers of Columbia Yarns present with 
pleasure, this, the latest edition of 



The Columbia Book of Yams 



EVERYBODY knits, nowadays! One sees the flashing 
needles not only in the home and the social circle, 
but at public gatherings, in trains and trolley cars, — 
everywhere ! Women are knitting as they never 
knitted before,— for pleasure, for profit, for charities on both 
sides of the ocean. 

With such widespread enthusiasm, this new edition of the 
Columbia Book of Yarns is particularly welcome. It answers 
the great need of the hundreds of women who wish to learn 
Knitting and Crocheting, — such fascinating and useful pur- 
suits! It is the ideal teacher,— ready, patient and practical,— 
teaching the important early steps by means of clear, graphic 
illustrations and accurate directions. 

It answers, too, the demands of experienced knitters who 
always want new stitches and new garments on which to try 
their skill. Many new articles are shown. 

One lesson is repeated on every page, because of its im- 
portance. It is : Always use [Columbia Yarns ! The best 
knitter cannot overcome the handicap of poor yarn, and on 
the other hand, the veriest amateur takes courage from the 
soft rich beauty of Columbia Yarns, which even poor knitting 
cannot disguise. Columbia Yarns have "life," fullness, 
elasticity, depth and variety of color. These are the points 
that count in knitting, and wear, and washing,— that make 
the difference between true and false economy. Think of 
them when you are selecting yarns, and you will be sure to get 
the genuine " Columbia." 



On the Choice of Yam 



THE beauty of the articles in this book comes of two things— hand 
work, and a fine yarn. A hand worker, with proper materials, 
will give her work a delicacy, a fineness of finish, a character that 
no machine-made work ever possesses. But she must look to her 
yarns to do it. She must find a lofty, elastic, even thread, soft and thin to 
the touch made of a wool sensitive to the slightest gradation of shade and 
color. The COLUMBIA YARNS were used in making all the articles in 
this book, and they meet the requirements. With them work in yarns 
becomes an art, and good results are easier and surer. 

Stamped by public opinion as the best among yarns recognized as good,^ 
COLUMBIA YARNS cost in the beginning a trifle more than some others 
—otherwise they could not be what they are. In the end they are the 
cheapest of all. For the cheapness of a yarn is determined not alone by what 
you pay for a hank of it, but also by what the hank will do in quality, and quan- 
tity of work. The coarse, unelastic thread of a common yarn will not reach 
as far as a yarn of a finer texture, and besides, the COLUMBIA YARNS 
contain, pound for pound, more yards than common grades. In the finished 
piece of knitting or crocheting COLUMBIA YARNS mean not only quality 
but economy. 

The brilliancy and shading in COLUMBIA YARNS is unsurpassed. 
There are no flat, crude, dead colors among them, partly because of the 
way they are dyed, and partly because of the quality of their thread. A fine 
wool receives a color and retains the brilliancy of it, where an inferior wool 
dyes into a lifeless, displeasing shade. 

BLACKS in COLUMBIA YARNS are guaranteed fast. 

In preparing for your work, therefore, you should get COLUMBIA 
YARNS. They are standard, even in qualily, and when you get to using 
them you find they demand less of your patience because they do not vary 
from package to package. They are sold by the best retail stores throughout 
the country, with but a few exceptions. Should your dealer not handle 
them, write to us and we will refer you to the nearest store that handles the 
complete assortment.

Explanation of Terms Used in Knitting 
and Crocheting 



111 the following pages are found the first 
stitches ill knitting and crocheting, tlie more 
ciiuiplex stitches are made by various repeti- 
tious ;iiiil eomlnnations of the simple ones al- 
rcud.v irivt'ii. Therefore you will tiiid refer- 
i'lici's (•ontimially to the first steps, and the 



references are abbreviated. Thus, " work Sg. 
C or D C " means " work a single crochet or a 
double crochet " ; the method of working these 
is explained on pages 11 and 12. The following 
is a list of the ablireviatioiis used, with the ex- 
planation of them :

D C! — Double crochet. Explained on page V2. 

L C — Long crochet. Explained on page 12. 

T C or Tr. C — Treble crochet. Explained on 
page 12. 

I'— Picot. 

C— Crochet. 

Th. O— Throw over. 

Stars, thus * *, mean that the work de- 
scribed between them is to be repeated. They 
save unnecessary description where a row is 
the same as a preceding one. 

Wrap — Moans to tlirow yarn over needle. 



The Instructions for every article shown or 
referred to in this book were written from the

Columbia Lustrone 




"Brightest and Best" Embroidery Thread 

Columbia Lustrone is made in England by JAS. PEARSALL & CO., world 
renowned experts in the manufacture of embroidery threads 



That fact alone will immediately recommend it 
to thousands of women. 

COLUMBIA LUSTRONE is the "Brightest and 
Best" embroidery thread. 

It actually looks silkier than silk. 

And it permanently retains its lustre. 

Besides that, COLUMBIA LUSTRONE is softer 
and more pliable than any embroidery thread you 
ever used. 

It not only looks better when the piece is finished, 
but is easier to work. 

You really enjoy doing art needlework with 
COLUMBIA LUSTRONE because it effectively and 



quickly brings out the design— you see you are ac- 
complishing something with every stitch. 

Another thing; COLUMBIA LUSTRONE doesn't 
twist easily; and if it should get tangled, it is readily 
untangled. All of which means quicker work. 

COLUMBIA LUSTRONE is made in a splendid 
variety of perfect and artistic shadings which produce 
superb effects. 

On your next piece of art needlework, be sure to 
use COLUMBIA LUSTRONE. 

You'll get through in surprisingly short time ; 
you'll have a more effective piece of work ; and the 
brilliant lustre will make it such a thing of beauty 
as you never had before.
